A new Disney Jr show ... this one more of a “dance party”

I just wonder if Muppet Babies would be involved idk

Haven’t heard of that - only new property I know is included is Vampirina

 

[MickeyMinnieMom]

A day time show would be cool ... maybe Pixar based .....

... or like a Muppet take on Fantasmic! Could be fun

I’m a huge fan of anything that takes people away from the stuff I want to do!

Depends were they decide to do the next expansion. They have the Mermaid/Launch Bay area...they have the IJSS/Star Tours area...they also have a big swath of land above and behind RNR. The smart move would be to go to the undeveloped land first so they don't shut more attractions down while increasing capacity. I fully expect them to go to Launch Bay/Mermaid first, as it will probably cost them less in utility/foundation setups.

Throw in the ABC theater and Echo Lake and you've got a SWGE sized space in the park, with a lot of utilities already available, that could be turned into a land.

If they take fantasmic I will riot


Especially when they have 5000000 better things to take out in DHS

Considering they had to add a night time extravaganza to AK to keep people in that park in the evenings, plus all the dinner packages Fantasmic sells, I'd put that way way down the list of possibilities.

Eekk! We are planning on going back early May 2020! Only doing 1 WDW day (HS/EP). I hope this opens before we get there!

Take this as an FYI - but Martin at WDWMagic.com released over the weekend there is one option of demoing the ST building in the future - no date, nor plan for what could go there was stated - this is just another option, so I would not get too upset. But as pointed out by another poster - If Disney is looking at plans for demo, that usually means there are some type of plans as well to replace what is demoed.

So....was this just supposition to get the chance to see if it might go to AK in WDW also? No real verification of this is there...

I am still shocked how little they have done with this movie as far as talk about something in the parks or bringing in more merchandise with how much money this movie made.

Even though I loved IJ ride at Disneyland I’m happy we’re not getting a similar IJ ride in AK. I’m hoping for a revamped Dinosaur but similar concept with a total Dino redo of Chester and Hester’s.
